Thank you for posting. Laidlaw HD is one of the largest Harley dealers in the country. Matt has done many worthwhile and informative vids. I find that he cuts through the BS pretty good and is pretty straight in his bike reviews. Thanks again.

Seriously though. Not a bad reference. Thanks Tex. How man miles on the new bike ?
Lmao....I know right...

She's got 21 miles on her

Other than a demo ride, I have yet to ride it. It is in the 30's with a windchill in the 20's here in Houston and let's just say I'm not equipped for cold weather riding...lol

S&S Grand National slip on's are both high quality in build and sound. I have one on one of the bikes in the garage and it is a great piece of work. S&S builds quality stuff.

Just to be clear, if that's even possible regarding warranty at this point, 3rd party EPA compliance does not protect your warranty. Harleys own parts are only covered under their "custom coverage" feature which runs "concurrent" with your factory warranty. So unless S&S or V&H are selling you an additional warranty product that covers your HD power train you are not in the same boat as those buying Street Canons. Here's a link to the basics of the language.

Those of you in UK, Australia and New Zealand have different rules I believe.

In less than 5 minutes, she's a "super" Heritage... I love how quick & easily you can change the look of this bike

Thanks for posting. Some folks have blinders on when it comes to the HD warranty. Actually it’s pretty simple.

Thanks man... It is flat out sick in person.. I'm going to add a swingarm bag, a seat bib and my Kuryakyn laydown license plate should be here tomorrow for daily riding and local bar hops.

Then throw the windshied & bags back on and get the tour pak for trips.

best of both worlds
